  • RISE Program Overview

    5

    • Developmental program that seeks to increase the number of students underrepresented (UR) in the biomedical sciences that complete Ph.D. degrees.

    • Aims to help reduce the existing gap in completion of Ph.D. degrees between underrepresented and non-underrepresented students.
